Marvino's League of Superheroes

First Prize – 2013 Carlos Palanca Memorial Awards for Literature, Short Story for Children

2016 National Children's Book Awards, Finalist — Kids' Choice

A museum of toys and superheroes suddenly opens in the town of Majayjay! Unfortunately, Marvino cannot afford the entrance fee at the museum. He contents himself with drawing superheroes outside the museum and showing them to his new friend.

One day, the museum doors finally open for Marvino. What he finds inside will truly surprise him.

This is a nice story about Marvino going to a museum, but he doesn’t have the money for it. But then he befriends the one who owns the museum, but he doesn’t know it. What I like about this is that, if you see a good sculpting, you can draw it, just like how Marvino did. —Horacio Rafael de Peralta
